- Kristen Stewart's not a Twilight fan
Robert Pattinson presented an award at the Oscars, but where was his Twilight co-star Kirsten Stewart?
She may be the star of a massively successful movie, but it turns out Kristen's not so proud of her work in the teen vampire flick.
When Access Hollywood asked Kristen's father John Stewart why his daughter wasn't joining her co-star on stage, John replied that she would only host at the Oscars "when it's a great movie, not just one that makes a lot of money".
Ouch!
Kristen must be really looking forward to working on the next three Twilight films... Unless of course she ditches them for something more arty. Somehow we don't think Twilight fans would let her go that easily.

- Dakota Fanning to join Kristen Stewart in 'The Runaways' Fifteen-year-old Dakota Fanning is negotiating to play Cherie Currie in The Runaways, the biopic of the '70s all-girl band, according to Variety. Fanning is the same age as Currie was when she debuted as the lead singer of the Runaways with hard-edged tunes like "Cherry Bomb." Twilight star Kristen Stewart has already signed on to play Joan Jett, who will executive-produce the film. Fanning is also booked to play a vampire in the upcoming Twilight sequel New Moon.

- Stewart: 'It would be easy to quit Twilight'
Kristen Stewart has claimed that it would be easy for her to step away from the Twilight movie franchise.
The actress played Bella Swan alongside Robert Pattinson's Edward Cullen in the adaptation of the first of Stephenie Meyer's bestselling novels.
Stewart said: "I've totally had the thought; it would be so easy for me to send so many hundreds of girls into such a frenzy by saying I want no part of any future movies.
"Yeah, I have thought, many times. 'What could I do?' It'd be so easy."
She added that it took a long time for her to admit that she was "bogged down" by the first book and had read it from a different perspective to most of the fans.
Stewart recently said that she was "excited" about starring in sequel New Moon. Meanwhile, third film Eclipse has been greenlit for a summer 2010 release.

- Kristen Stewart Talks 'New Moon' and New Movie!
As 'Twilight' star Kristen Stewart gets ready to take a bite out of the highly anticipated 'New Moon,' ET is with the 18-year-old star to talk about her new indie flick, 'The Cake Eaters.' But first, Kristen is revealing secrets about the big Stephenie Meyer follow-up -- and how 'Twilight' has changed her life!
"It's been good for me, it's been only good," says Kristen of life after the release of the vampire film phenomenon. "It really facilitates work that I love. It makes it much easier. I don't have to fight to get into a movie that I really want to do. It's not a fight anymore, and it was."
As for 'New Moon,' which she's about to start filming, Kristen says she's "really excited," but it's "a big job."
"It's a lot different, also, from the first," she adds. "It's a very different story. A lot happens: [Bella] doesn't have [Edward] anymore, and she's also in a place where she has to step up and kind of become more mature, and to see her deal with life without him is going to be interesting. … It's all very epic and convoluted."
In theaters March 13, the quirky, lighthearted drama 'The Cake Eaters' casts Kristen as Georgia, a small-town teen who, despite grappling with a disease of the nervous system that causes her to shake and slur her speech, just wants to experience love for the first time. Featuring 'Tadpole' star Aaron Stanford and Oscar nominees Bruce Dern and Melissa Leo, the film fest favorite was helmed by Mary Stuart Masterson in her feature directing debut.
Kristen spoke to two young girls with the actual disease, Friedreich's Ataxia, and explains how she channeled the malady: "I had it in my mind, and then it somehow gets into your physical self as well," she says. "[They are] very used to having this disease, so [they] handle it differently than someone who, like myself, is just trying to think about what it would feel like to be entirely numb and have no muscle control. It's like they're used to it so they're very good at it."
